Ask Your Appraiser

If you have kids or planning on starting a family in the future, consider picking a school to be as important as it is to pick the perfect home. It is up to you to do the research and determine what schools are "good" in the area you are planing on buying a home. Due to fair housing laws agents and property managers cant offer their opinions on schools. Once you have decided on the school district of your choice you can then have your agent search for homes in that area. 

Stick to the facts Find out what the reputation of the school is. What do the test score say about the level of education at the school? Its best to prepare questions before heading out to school districts to do your research.
